Reported it in-game on the PTR but maybe someone smart can figure it out.Issue with this azerite trait.Thought HarvesterVampiric Touch damage is increased by 112, and each time Vampiric Touch deals damage you have a chance to increase the damage of your next Mind Sear within 20 sec by 300%.So I noticed in my combatlog that often the increased damage from Mind Sear isn't applied. I'm simple casting Vampiric Touch on a dummy target. Wait for a Thought Harvester proc and cast it. What I should see is; Your Mind Sear hit Raider's Training Dummy 5,424 ShadowWhat I actually get;Your Mind Sear hit R…

11/01/2018 03:19 AMPosted by HpellipsisShadow wasn't set for a rework in BFA because BFA was planned well before the problems for shadow really came to their head in legion (ToS / Antorus). Doing a major rework (Completely rebuilding a core mechanic) is entirely off the cards for a patch within an expansion. The earliest you'd see the back of the mechanic is 9.0, that's the earliest it's ever been. I've no idea where the idea that the spec was getting a major rework in 8.1 even came from. I don't honestly think you need to keep reminding them the mechanic is bad for long term game design, we'v…

My opinion; Short term fixes;- Mind Blast 2 charges. (to open up T15 choose)- Talent T15; Shadow Word: Void replaced with; <pick Void name> "Void Bolt places a debuff on your target inc. dmg taken from dots by 1% stacking 5 times" (Having 5 stacks on target A, than move to Target B doesn't work, it removes the debuff from Target A, Target B gets 1 stack)Somewhat idea from mixing Archimonde class trinket/Mass Hysteria/Whispers of the Damned (live version)Alternative- Talent T15 Shadow Word: Void Replaced with <Pick Void name>; "Void bolt generates X insanity over X seconds. Idea behind this is …

10/27/2018 01:49 AMPosted by AnneshThis is the trouble that the forums are having. You're demanding things from Blizzard that they just don't have the resources to do right now. You have to keep your suggestions simple. Removing Voidform is not an option right now. If you want big changes, you have to wait for them. That's why I want small changes right now, and why I think Monday's changes are a good start, more than I expected in fact.I'm just going to repeat myself, it isn't something that happend out of the blue.As EU forums are dead.The issue I'm having with Shadow Priest is the Insanity …

10/26/2018 07:43 AMPosted by MaybeitsroxxAlso I tried on ptr 3 target to get over 25 stacks was basically imposible with the build you would assume to use. Also random note on that new Thought Harvester trait. When you are in VF and you get the proc you want to channel the full Mind Sear instead of using VB or MB which on 3 target really feels bad for a few reasons. 1.)Not pressing VB on CD(side note this already happens regardless of what you do) basically means SW:Pain is going to fall off w/e targets that have it 100% of the time if you use this. 2.)The other problem with it is generally yo…

10/25/2018 08:04 AMPosted by Myras@everyone wanting these fixes to have removed voidform or done a complete voidform rework - there was never an expectation that that would happen in 8.1 set by blizzard....And lets not mistake the tuning of Voidform being thought as the solution, where these number changes could have easily been implemented on BFA release or pre-raid tuning. The rest of the mechanical changes involving talents and DR are absolutely valid for a patch, but +20% damage on Voidform, +15% drain increase, and +25% Void Bolt generation are all tuning pass level of changes!!!And you w…

As EU forums are dead.The issue I'm having with Shadow Priest is the Insanity drain part.there is long history of bosses/encounters where it just doen't work out.Couple of examples;Legion DungeonsBlack Rook Hold - Datalionax - Phases away.Maw of Souls - Helya - Phases away.Neltharion's lair - Ularogg - Phases away.Karazhan - Viz'aduum - Jumps platforms.Arcway - Advisor Vandros - Phases away.Vault of the Wardens - Cordana/Glazer - Phases - Voidform becomes useless. (though for these can start again with max insanity at least)Legion RaidsEmerald Nightmare - Elerethe - When the boss jumped mid vo…
